Definitions
- the present invention relates to a liquid crystal composition, a liquid crystal display element containing the composition, and the like.
- the present invention relates to a liquid crystal composition having a negative dielectric anisotropy, and a liquid crystal display element, which includes a polar compound and a polymerizable compound (or a polymer thereof) and can achieve vertical alignment of liquid crystal molecules by the action of these compounds. .
- the classification based on the operation mode of the liquid crystal molecules is as follows: PC (phase change), TN (twisted nematic), STN (super twisted nematic), ECB (electrically controlled birefringence), OCB (optically compensated bend), IPS. (In-plane switching), VA (vertical alignment), FFS (fringe field switching), FPA (field-induced photo-reactive alignment) mode.
- the classification based on the element drive system is PM (passive matrix) and AM (active matrix). PM is classified into static, multiplex, etc., and AM is classified into TFT (thin film insulator), MIM (metal film insulator), and the like. TFTs are classified into amorphous silicon and polycrystalline silicon. The latter is classified into a high temperature type and a low temperature type according to the manufacturing process.
- the classification based on the light source includes a reflection type using natural light, a transmission type using backlight, and a semi-transmission type using both natural light and backlight.
- the liquid crystal display element contains a liquid crystal composition having a nematic phase.
- This composition has suitable properties. By improving the characteristics of the composition, an AM device having good characteristics can be obtained. The relationship between the two characteristics is summarized in Table 1 below. The characteristics of the composition will be further described based on a commercially available AM device.
- the temperature range of the nematic phase is related to the temperature range in which the device can be used.
- a preferred upper limit temperature of the nematic phase is about 70 ° C. or more, and a preferred lower limit temperature of the nematic phase is about ⁇ 10 ° C. or less.
- the viscosity of the composition is related to the response time of the device. A short response time is preferred for displaying moving images on the device. A shorter response time is desirable even at 1 millisecond. Therefore, a small viscosity in the composition is preferred. A small viscosity at low temperatures is even more preferred.
- the optical anisotropy of the composition is related to the contrast ratio of the device. Depending on the mode of the device, a large optical anisotropy or a small optical anisotropy, ie an appropriate optical anisotropy is required.
- the product ( ⁇ n ⁇ d) of the optical anisotropy ( ⁇ n) of the composition and the cell gap (d) of the device is designed to maximize the contrast ratio.
- the appropriate value for the product depends on the type of operating mode. This value is in the range of about 0.30 ⁇ m to about 0.40 ⁇ m for the VA mode element and in the range of about 0.20 ⁇ m to about 0.30 ⁇ m for the IPS mode or FFS mode element.
- a composition having a large optical anisotropy is preferable for a device having a small cell gap.
- a large dielectric anisotropy in the composition contributes to a low threshold voltage, a small power consumption and a large contrast ratio in the device. Therefore, a large dielectric anisotropy is preferable.
- a large specific resistance in the composition contributes to a large voltage holding ratio and a large contrast ratio in the device. Therefore, a composition having a large specific resistance not only at room temperature but also at a temperature close to the upper limit temperature of the nematic phase in the initial stage is preferable.
- a composition having a large specific resistance not only at room temperature but also at a temperature close to the upper limit temperature of the nematic phase after being used for a long time is preferable.
- the stability of the composition against ultraviolet rays and heat is related to the lifetime of the device. When this stability is high, the lifetime of the device is long. Such characteristics are preferable for an AM device used in a liquid crystal projector, a liquid crystal television, and the like.
- a composition to which a small amount of a polymerizable compound is added is injected into the device.
- the composition is irradiated with ultraviolet rays while applying a voltage between the substrates of the device.

- the liquid crystal molecules are aligned according to this arrangement.
- the composition is irradiated with ultraviolet rays while applying a voltage between the substrates of the device.
- the polymerizable compound is polymerized to stabilize the alignment of the liquid crystal molecules.
- the orientation of liquid crystal molecules can be controlled by the polymer and the polar compound, the response time of the device is shortened, and image burn-in is improved. Furthermore, in the element having no alignment film, the step of forming the alignment film is unnecessary. Since there is no alignment film, the electrical resistance of the device does not decrease due to the interaction between the alignment film and the composition. Such an effect by the combination of the polymer and the polar compound can be expected for a device having a mode such as TN, ECB, OCB, IPS, VA, FFS, and FPA.

1)誘電率(ε∥)の測定:よく洗浄したガラス基板にオクタデシルトリエトキシシラン(0.16mL)のエタノール(20mL)溶液を塗布した。ガラス基板をスピンナーで回転させたあと、150℃で1時間加熱した。2枚のガラス基板の間隔(セルギャップ)が4μmであるVA素子に試料を入れ、この素子を紫外線で硬化する接着剤で密閉した。この素子にサイン波(0.5V、1kHz)を印加し、2秒後に液晶分子の長軸方向における誘電率(ε∥)を測定した。
2)誘電率(ε⊥)の測定:よく洗浄したガラス基板にポリイミド溶液を塗布した。このガラス基板を焼成した後、得られた配向膜にラビング処理をした。2枚のガラス基板の間隔(セルギャップ)が9μmであり、ツイスト角が80度であるTN素子に試料を注入した。この素子にサイン波(0.5V、1kHz)を印加し、2秒後に液晶分子の短軸方向における誘電率(ε⊥)を測定した。
Δφ(deg.)=φ(after)-φ(before) (式2)
これらの測定はJ. Hilfiker, B. Johs, C. Herzinger, J. F. Elman, E. Montbach, D. Bryant, and P. J. Bos, Thin Solid Films, 455-456, (2004) 596-600を参考に行った。Δφが小さいほうが液晶配向軸の変化率が小さく、液晶配向軸の安定性が良いといえる。

試験番号1
組成物(M1)に重合性化合物(RM-1)を0.5重量%の割合で、極性化合物(PC-1)を5重量%の割合で添加した。この混合物を100℃のホットステージ上で2枚のガラス基板の間隔(セルギャップ)が4.0μmである、配向膜を有しない素子に注入した。この素子に超高圧水銀ランプUSH-250-BY(ウシオ電機製)を用いて紫外線を照射(28J)することによって、重合性化合物を重合させた。この素子を偏光子と検光子が直行して配置された偏光顕微鏡にセットし、下から素子に光を照射し、光漏れの有無を観察した。液晶分子が充分に配向し、光が素子を通過しない場合は、垂直配向が「良好」と判断した。素子を通過した光が観察された場合は、「不良」と表した。
組成物、重合性化合物、および極性化合物を組み合わせた混合物を用いて配向膜を有しない素子を作製した。試験番号1と同様な方法で光漏れの有無を観察した。結果を表4にまとめた。
組成物には極性化合物と共に重合性化合物を添加した。この重合性化合物は、重合によって消費され重合体を与えた。この反応の転化率は大きい方が好ましい。重合性化合物の残量(未反応の重合性化合物の量)は、画像の焼き付きの観点から少ない方が好ましいからである。高分子支持配向型の素子を作製するときは、液晶分子のプレチルト角を最適化する目的で、一般に二段階で紫外線を照射する。次の試験では、第一段階の紫外線を照射したあと、重合性化合物の残量を測定し、転化率を算出した。比較するために、下記の重合性化合物(RM-9)を選んだ。この化合物は、記号の定義によって化合物(1)から除外されている。
表6に記載したように、各種の組成物、重合性化合物、および極性化合物を組み合わせて調製した混合物を、配向膜を有しない素子に注入した。上記の項(12)にしたがって、紫外線を照射することによって重合性化合物を重合させたあと、素子の応答時間を測定した。比較のために、重合性化合物と極性化合物とを添加しないまま組成物(M5)または組成物(M9)から素子を作製し、同様な方法で応答時間を測定した。表6から分かるように、試験番号1から33では、応答時間が5.2ミリ秒から10.4ミリ秒の範囲であった。一方、比較1と比較2の応答時間は、それぞれ21.8ミリ秒と21.7ミリ秒であった。すなわち、重合性化合物と極性化合物を添加しない時は、応答時間が約2倍であった。したがって、重合性化合物(1)から誘導された重合体と極性化合物(4)または(5)の組み合わせが応答時間を短縮するのに有効であると結論できる。
